This Time It's Real

I never knew what I'd go through without you

Or how much I need for you to believe in me

But it won't have to be like before

'Cause I don't have to lie anymore

'Cause this time it's real

The way that I feel about you

Don't walk away 'cause I'm not the same without you

I'm not just fooling around

I promise I won't let you down

This time it's real, this time it's real

I finally know why you had to go away

You needed time--something that I couldn't give

But I'm not the same man I've been

And you'll know when I hold you again

I've only given you half of my heart

But I'll give it all from now on
